Texas students and their families speak over 120 languages. One in four Texas students come from a home where more than one language is used. This means Texas is home to widespread bilingualism! To celebrate and to raise awareness of the benefits of bilingualism, a short video has been created that explores why schools, families, and students should continue to support bilingual education in Texas.

This short, parent-friendly video focuses on three principle benefits of bilingualism: cognitive, academic, and economic.

Make sure to share this video with educators, families, and community members using one of the six languages offered. By building support for bilingualism in Texas, we are ensuring increased academic success, more economic opportunities, and better cognitive skills for students across the state.
